Hello, my question is simple, I need to do something like the extended tracking on vuforia, once I focus over the image and my model start to show over my phone screen, I want to keep the model around even if I lost the image tracker, I have been searching and only found some chinese tutorial which is pointless as doesn't explain things well.

Is weird that this function is not implemented itself as in vuforia is you a simple checkbox, however I really want to stick to EasyAR.

I'm using Unity latest version and EasyAR latest version (2.3)

Ok. I understand your needs. However, the current version of EasyAR SDK does not extend tracing. However, you can use other methods to achieve similar functions (such as those Chinese tutorials you mentioned).

I get it, however it is being very tricky to understand what they are explaining, even using google translator, and as I don't really catch up the explanation I don't find logic on their actions over the Editor and on scripts, I will try to follow them with patience

If you are using Unity, you can use the OnTargetLost event. Here https://www.easyar.com/doc/EasyAR%20SDK/Getting%20Started/2.0/Setting-up-EasyAR-Unity-SDK.html you can see an example using the EasyImageTargetBehaviour class
